Field Notes

Description:

A light green colored crab spider, light cream colors on abdomen and around it's red eyes.
9mm female.

Habitat:

A plant in Rose Cabin inn, Kundasang, Sabah.

Notes:

I found it inside it's home (curved leaf sac) on a tall plant just outside the lobby building the night before.
I caught it and wait till morning to photograph it.
Unfortunately at that time I was still inexperienced in photography so I cannot control the light entering the camera, thus affecting the camera focus too.
This is one of the many species of arthropods I have found in Rose Cabin.
>>>Map accuracy : 5m radius.

Thanks for the comments everyone. Thank you Cecilia.J for your suggestion but unfortunately the ID does not match the organism because this a crab spider, not an orb-weaver spider.
